If He Should Come Tonight

Composer: Lelia Morris, 1907

Read the times with keen dis­cern­ing

Oh

ye serv­ants of the Lord;

See the signs of Christ’s re­turn­ing

As is pro­mised in His word.

If He should come to­night

If He should come to­night

Would He find us watch­ing

wait­ing

With our lamps all trimmed and bright?

If He should come to­night

If He should come to­night

Would He find us watch­ing

wait­ing

If the Lord should come to­night?

Note the earth al­rea­dy quak­ing

’Neath our king’s on­com­ing tread;

Soon His voice

the si­lence break­ing

Shall awake the sleep­ing dead.

Suddenly and with­out warn­ing

He shall in the clouds ap­pear

And the great mil­len­nial morn­ing

Of His pow’r is al­most here.

He His chos­en bride shall ga­ther

When He comes to earth again;

To the bo­som of the Fa­ther

Evermore with Him to reign.
